Please note that assured reports are still subject to review by AASHE staff prior to publication, which may require additional revisions. AASHE reserves the right to withhold points for this credit if it is determined that the assurance process was clearly unsuccessful in identifying and resolving inconsistencies or errors (e.g., when AASHE staff identify a significant number of issues that were either not mentioned in the completed review template or not resolved successfully).

Has the institution completed an assurance process that provides independent affirmation that the information in its current STARS report is reported in accordance with credit criteria?:
Yes

Did the assurance process include internal review, an external audit, or both?:
External audit

The name, title, and organizational affiliation of each reviewer:

A brief description of the institution’s assurance process:
As part of the ACTS (Australasian Campuses Towards Sustainability) pilot cohort, participants engaged in peer-review for another participant university. The reviewer used the Review Template provided by AASHE to identify problems/inconsistencies and to communicate them to the University of Tasmania Sustainability Team. The Sustainability Team then addressed each of them in the submission and in the template.
